I started running into slow renders when I bought my Canon XF300s a year and half ago, I shoot at the highest setting, 50 mbs and immediately noticed slow renders, especially with any correction. An hour ceremony was taking me 10 hours to render almost any HD format. Prior to my canons, I had Sony V1us, which were not as intensive on the machine.
As for the mac, I had planned to phase out of Vegas and go FCPX full on, then I ran into a pretty nasty metadata problem and have been talking with Apple for the past month trying to work around the ‘camera name’ glitch in fcpx’s multicam.
Which leads me to a decision, rebuilding my pc since Vegas doesn’t have issues with my MXF files, except for the really slow renders.

So does Vegas 10 take advantage of GPU processing or will I have to go up to 13. Thanks by the way for the spec help, trying to not waste money on a build.

The monitor does work via HDMI strait from the camera. I’m not sure what you mean video out. My options are HDMI and HD-SDI in/out and CVBS In

Hi,
I too have a similar issue. I have a Canon XF300, so I purchased a Steadicam HD Scout and an Atomos converter. I put it all together and have no signal via HD-SDI. The monitor will show my HDMI signal, but the sled is wired for HD-SDI. I then tested the camera-atomos conversion with a professional scope, Tektronix WFM2200 Waveform Monitor, and the Canon to Atomos conversion showed up on it. We then looped out of the Waveform Monitor to the Steadicam monitor directly, and still, no signal. Steadicam sent me another monitor and I got the same result. I borrowed another converter, a Intelix Coax2 Extender and that convesion worked, and the signal showed up on the Steadicam monitor.
Atomos sent me three converters and none of them work with the Steadicam monitor. The back of my monitor has HD-SDI in and out. Needless to say I’ve been trying to solve this riddle for a month or more. I thought about buying another monitor since that’s one thing I can borrow around my area, especially since the conversion off the Atomos worked with the Waveform monitor.
I’m officially sending out a distress signal. I’m stumped.
